We determined whether chronic endothelin-1 (ET-1) treatment could lead to in vivo insulin resistance. Like insulin, ET-1 acutely stimulated glucose transport in isolated soleus muscle strips of WKY rats. ET-1 pre-treatment (1 h) decreased insulin-stimulated glucose transport in muscle strips (23%). Both ET-1–mediated effects were generated through ETA receptors, because a specific ETA receptor antagonist (BQ610) blocked these effects of ET-1. Osmotic minipumps were used to treat normal rats with ET-1 for 5 days. Subsequent hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps showed that ET-1 treatment led to an 30 % decrease in insulin-stimu-lated glucose disposal rates in male and female rats. In addition, ex vivo study of soleus muscle strips showed decrea...
